2. Damaged turbine blades. This results in a large vibration increase accompanied by an increase in the exhaust temperature.
3. Bowed no..le. The exhaust temperature will increase, and there may be an increase in turbine vibration.

4. Bearing ailure. The symptoms of bearing problems for a turbine are the same as for a compressor.
5. Cooling air ailure. Problems associated with the blade cooling system may be detected by an increase in the pressure drop in the cooling line.
6. Turbine maintenance. This should be based on ..equivalent enginetime,.. which is the function of temperature, type of fuel used, and number of starts. Figure 19-21 shows the correction that can be applied to running hours for intermittent-duty units with high-startjstop operation.
Turbine Efficiency
1. With the current high cost offuel, very significant savings can be achieved by monitoring equipment operating efficiencies and correct-ing for operational inefficiencies. Some of these operational inefficien-cies may be very simple tocorrect, such as washing or cleaning of thecompressor on a gas turbine unit. In othercases, it may be necessary to develop a load-distribution program that achieves maximum over-all efficiency of the plant equipment for a given load demand.

Figure 19-22 shows the significant dollar cost penalties that occur when operating a turbine at a very small percentage efficiency degrada-tion.

Table 19-8 shows a load-distribution program for an 87.5-MW power station of steam turbines and gas turbines. The selection of equipment and their loading for the most efficient operation can be programmed when the efficiency of individual units are monitored. The program
